  7. Mandatory Grant recovery by employers (e) with effect from 2006 / 2007 financial year and in subsequent financial years, has submitted an ATR that has been verified by a SETA Board as having contributed to the implementation of the previous financial year’s WSP except for an employer contemplated in subregulation 6(1)(c) of these Regulations. (3) Employers who fail to meet the prescribed criteria will forfeit the grant referred to in regulation 6 of these regs. In addition, Section 10 (5) of the MHSA, 1996, as amended reads: “All mines must submit a workplace skills plan and the annual training reports to the Mining Qualifications Authority.

  10. Using Excel • Download excel WSP-ATR format (S or M/L) from www.mqa.org.za; • You only need Excel on your computer; • Intelligent Excel spreadsheet (checks SDL, OFO list & lookup etc); • Only 2 things you need to know to get started • How to enable macros; and • How the sheets with the full OFO work.

This will allow the macros for the spreadsheet to run. • Click OK.

  21. You may now open the spreadsheet. All functionality will be enabled for the worksheet to function properly. • If you do not enable Macros as stated above, certain functionalities will be disabled on the worksheet, for example the “ENTER” buttons will seem to not work, and you will get the following error message: If you get this message, close the spreadsheet, re-open excel and follow the instructions from number 1) above. Once these instructions have been followed, you may re-open the spreadsheet and all functionality will be enabled.

  22. Completing sheets that require full OFO • M/L : Occupational distribution of workforce (2.2.1 ) & Scarce Skills (3) • Select an Occupational Category before selecting an Occupational Title and Code. You will NOT be able to select an Occupational Title if the Occupational Category dropdown is empty; • After adding your data, make sure you click or tab off the cell you last added data into, before clicking the “ENTER” button. If the last cell to have data added is still selected, the “ENTER” button will not work; • To delete any added rows, highlighting the entire row by clicking on the row number on your left, right click and then select ”Delete”.
